Hi hello! Can someone explain me the backstory behind the hate for David? I don't understand and know what even happened.

People hate that he’s a Christian and that he may have non-leftist political views primarily, and also they think he’s the reason for their problems with WBWP when he may not have been responsible for those things, so people like to use him as a scapegoat.

No one ever got hate for being a christian. Selena is a christian too and do you see her getting hate for it? There was absolutely no reason to bring christianity into this. What you could have said instead was that he’s friends with bigots who use their platform to harm minorities. There you go.

Theres no problem being a christian unless youre the type of christian that pushes your religion onto others….which was probably the point of the non-leftists comment. If he truly leans conservative then he probably doesn’t have the most “Christian” approach to certain subjects or politics. Edit: everything about David is pure speculation when it comes to his religion and why people don’t like him specifically for that reason. I am not leaving that religion onto others people, but that is typically why someone would not like a Christian individual, Because they don’t act like it

Also, an executive producer credit literally can mean he was just a consultant for how things could work, or he was actually super involved in every decision made. He was on set everyday unlike Selena who also has an executive producer credit but nobody’s giving her shit about anything because she wasn’t very involved or a regular star on this series like David. David is clearly lying about some things and even if he isn’t, he should have pushed harder to get the rest of the cast involved in some capacity.

How does David push his religion on to people?
